Tall Oaks Redevelopment

HDP has strategically envisioned a redevelopment plan for the Tall Oaks community centered on preserving affordable housing that directly responds to the needs of the existing residents. Moreover, the plan will provide housing opportunities for low and moderate income families that desire to reside and work in close proximity to the downtown area. The redevelopment plan is within the Cherry community, one of Charlotte’s most historic neighborhoods and oldest African American communities.

Redevelopment activities will be completed in two phases. Phase I will consist of 81 units for families with incomes up to 60% of AMI and will be built utilizing 9% Low Income Housing Tax Credits. The $11.2 million Phase I will consist of one, two, three and four bedroom units on scattered sites within walking distance of each other. Amenities provided will include outdoor seating areas, an exercise room, multi-purpose room, computer lab and leasing center. Phase I will break ground in the summer of 2016 and be completed by the end of 2017.

Phase II is anticipated to be workforce housing development with a mix of unit sizes and amenities that will be determined in the near future.
